This can be due to interference from an .htaccess file. Please check your .htaccess file in the root directory for your WordPress and see if it has a line referencing a specific version of php. If so, either remove or comment out that line.

If you do not see a line there, look up into the home directory (above the public_html folder) and see if there is also an .htaccess file there. If so, check for the same type of code and either remove or comment it out.
